Err, I mean "additive"
I have religiously used Stanadyne diesel fuel additive on my Silverado Duramax for the last nine years. I also use Stabil for my stored gasoline for my generator and other gasoline appliances. After a year of storage I recycle the gasoline into one of my vehicles and load up for another winter.
Do any of you use a fuel additive for your Vette? Any other thoughts on the matter? Waste of time? Bad to do? Good to do?

Nope, never have in many years of having cars in storage for the Winter months no problems so I would say a waste of money.

I use Sta-Bil in my car when it is in storage from around the first of December until April. For the small cost, it is just a peace of mind for me. I also put a bottle of Techron in the tank about twice a year.
